The vehicle in detail

Finished in Basalt Black Metallic over a beautifully appointed Natural Brown Full Leather interior, this 2005 Porsche 911 Carrera represents a particularly desirable example of the first year 997.1. Showing just 34,365 miles from new, it combines low mileage, outstanding originality, extensive recent servicing, and a highly optioned factory specification.
Originally delivered through New Country Porsche of Greenwich, Connecticut, this Carrera has been carefully preserved throughout its life. It retains its original paint, a clean CARFAX, both factory keys, and its complete set of original owner’s literature.

While often mistaken for standard Black, Basalt Black Metallic is one of Porsche’s most attractive metallic finishes from the era. In varying light it reveals subtle gold, bronze, green, and violet undertones that give the car far more depth than the solid A1 Black commonly seen on contemporary 997s. Prior to offering the car for sale, the original paint protection film covering the front bumper, hood, front fenders, headlights, and fog lights was professionally removed due to age, revealing exceptionally well-preserved paintwork underneath.

Power comes from Porsche’s 3.6 liter naturally aspirated flat six, paired with the enthusiast preferred 6 speed manual transmission. The combination delivers the engaging, analog driving experience that has helped establish the early 997 as one of the most sought after modern 911 generations.
Mechanically, the car has recently benefited from approximately $8,900 in preventative maintenance completed by Jack Daniels Porsche in May 2026 at 33,200 miles. The work addressed both routine maintenance and the charging system, leaving the car well prepared for its next owner.
Recent service includes:

  • Major 997 scheduled service completed
  • New alternator installed
  • New serpentine belt installed
  • Mobil 1 oil and filter service
  • Brake fluid flush
  • Six new spark plugs
  • New engine air filter
  • New cabin air filter
  • Fuel system service
  • Charging system diagnosis and repair
  • Comprehensive pre purchase inspection

In preparation for sale, four new Continental SportContact 02 tires were also installed and balanced.
Inside, the cabin is distinguished by one of the rarest interior specifications available on a standard Carrera. The Natural Brown Full Leather interior extends well beyond the seats and door panels to include the dashboard, rear panels, and the optional leather wrapped rear center console. Combined with supple leather upholstery and embossed Porsche crests in the headrests, the interior offers a level of craftsmanship typically associated with far more expensive models.
Factory equipment includes:

  • Basalt Black Metallic
  • Natural Brown Full Leather interior
  • Supple Leather front and rear
  • Leather wrapped rear center console
  • Bose High End Sound Package
  • Bi Xenon Headlamp Package
  • Leather Sport Steering Wheel
  • Heated front seats
  • Power Seat Package
  • Porsche crests embossed in the headrests
  • Navigation for PCM
  • Colored Porsche wheel crests
